Architects Notting Hill

Once the architectural design is set, and we finally obtain planning permission, the procurement route needs to be agreed upon by local authority and a suitable Contractor chosen. There are often options with the tendering process depending on the complexity and timeframes of the construction project.

Indeed you may already have a trusted building control contractor in the frame. Whatever the circumstances, Goater Jones will support you through the process, be it carrying out a negotiated tender with a trusted nominated contractor or undertaking a full competitive tender with multiple contractors, a Quantity Surveyor and a detailed Schedule of Works.

The goal is to find a procurement strategy and Contractor that aligns with your budget requirements and philosophic approach.

We have extensive experience using many forms of contract, and procurement strategies and will advise on insurance requirements.

We love to keep abreast of the project during its construction; planning approval, resolving site problems or identifying new opportunities is one of the most interesting parts of our work.

The level of our involvement during the construction stage can again be tailored to suit your needs. We may adopt a light construction role on a small or cost-conscious domestic project with monthly troubleshooting visits only.

For larger projects, our involvement tends to increase as we adopt responsibility for decision-making. We act as lead consultants and contract administrators. For some developments, we adopt an even more central Project Management role, increasing autonomy, designing and controlling labour on-site, purchasing materials on behalf of the client's vision etc.

Whatever your project requirements are, Goater Jones in Notting Hill will find a clear structure to serve your project best.
